Job:1:1 @ There was a certain man in the land of Ausis, whose name was Job; and than man was true, blameless, righteous, and godly, abstaining from everything evil.
bes@Job:1:2 @ And he had seven sons and three daughters.
bes@Job:1:3 @ And his cattle consisted of seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred she-asses in the pastures, and a very great (note:)Lit. ministry(:note) household, and he had a great husbandry on the earth; and that man was most noble of the men of the east.
bes@Job:1:4 @ And his sons visiting one another prepared a banquet every day, taking with them also their three sisters to eat and drink with them.
bes@Job:1:5 @ And when the days of the banquet were completed, Job sent and purified them, having risen up in the morning, and offered sacrifices for them, according to their number, and one calf for (note:)Gr. sin(:note) a sin-offering for their souls: for Job said, Lest peradventure my sons have thought evil in their minds against God. Thus, then Job did continually.
bes@Job:1:6 @ And it came to pass on a day, that behold, the angels of God came to stand before the Lord, and the devil came with them.
bes@Job:1:7 @ And the Lord said to the devil, Whence art thou come? And the devil answered the Lord, and said, I am come from compassing the earth, and walking up and down in (note:)Gr. the earth under heaven(:note) the world.
bes@Job:1:8 @ And the Lord said to him, Hast thou diligently considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a man blameless, true, godly, abstaining from everything evil?
bes@Job:1:9 @ Then the devil answered, and said before the Lord, Does Job worship the Lord for nothing?
bes@Job:1:10 @ Hast thou not made a hedge about him, and about his household, and all his possessions round about? and hast thou not blessed the works of his hands, and multiplied his cattle upon the land?
bes@Job:1:11 @ But put forth thine hand, and touch all that he has: verily he will bless thee to thy face.
bes@Job:1:12 @ Then the Lord said to the devil, Behold, I give into thine hand all that he has, but touch not himself. So the devil went out from the presence of the Lord.
bes@Job:1:13 @ And it came to pass on a certain day, that Job’s sons and his daughters were drinking wine in the house of their elder brother.
bes@Job:1:14 @ And, behold, there came a messenger to Job, and said to him, The yokes of oxen were ploughing, and the she-asses were feeding near them;
bes@Job:1:15 @ and the spoilers came and took them for a prey, and slew the servants with the sword; and I having escaped alone am come to tell thee.
bes@Job:1:16 @ While he was yet speaking, there came another messenger, and said to Job, Fire has fallen from heaven, and burnt up the sheep, and devoured the shepherds like wise; and I having escaped alone am come to tell thee.
bes@Job:1:17 @ While he was yet speaking, there came another messenger, and said to Job, The horsemen formed three companies against us, and surrounded the camels, and took them for a prey, and slew the servants with the sword; and I only escaped, and am come to tell thee.
bes@Job:1:18 @ While he is yet speaking, another messenger comes, saying to Job, While thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking with their elder brother,
bes@Job:1:19 @ suddenly a great wind came on from the desert, and (note:)Gr. touched(:note) caught the four corners of the house, and the house fell upon thy children, and they are dead; and I have escaped alone, and am come to tell thee.
bes@Job:1:20 @ So Job arose, and rent his garments, and shaved the hair of his head, and fell on the earth, and worshipped,
bes@Job:1:21 @ and said, I myself came forth naked from my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither; the Lord gave, the Lord has taken away: as it seemed good to the Lord, so has it come to pass; blessed be the name of the Lord.
bes@Job:1:22 @ In all these events that befell him Job sinned not at all before the Lord, and did not impute folly to God.
bes@Job:2:1 @ And it came to pass on a certain day, that the angels of God came to stand before the Lord, and the devil came among them to stand before the Lord.
bes@Job:2:2 @ And the Lord, said to the devil, Whence comest thou? Then the devil said before the Lord, I am come from going through (note:)Gr. the earth under heaven(:note) the world, and walking about the whole earth.
bes@Job:2:3 @ And the Lord said to the devil, Hast thou then observed my servant Job, that there is none of men upon the earth like him, a harmless, true, blameless, godly man, abstaining from all evil? and he yet cleaves to innocence, whereas thou has told me to destroy his substance without cause?
bes@Job:2:4 @ And the devil answered and said to the Lord, Skin for skin, all that a man has will he give as a ransom for his life.
bes@Job:2:5 @ Nay, but put forth thine hand, and touch his bones and his (note:)Gr. plural(:note) flesh: verily he will bless thee to thy face.
bes@Job:2:6 @ And the Lord said to the devil, Behold, I deliver him up to thee; only save his life.
bes@Job:2:7 @ So the devil went out from the Lord, and smote Job with sore boils from his feet to his head.
bes@Job:2:8 @ And he took a potsherd to scrape away the discharge, and sat upon a dung-heap outside the city.
bes@Job:2:9 @ And when much time had passed, his wife said to him, How long wilt thou hold out, saying, (note:)(2:9AA)(:note) Behold, I wait yet a little while, expecting the hope of my deliverance? (2:9BA) for, behold, thy memorial is abolished from the earth, even thy sons and daughters, the pangs and pains of my womb which I bore in vain with sorrows; (2:9CA) and thou thyself sittest down to spend the nights in the open air among the corruption of worms, (2:9CA) and I am a wanderer and a servant from place to place and house to house, waiting for the setting of the sun, that I may rest from my labours and my pangs which now beset me: (2:9DA) but say some word against the Lord, and die.
bes@Job:2:10 @ But he looked on her, and said to her, Thou hast spoken like one of the foolish women. If we have received good things of the hand of the Lord, shall we not endure evil things? In all these things that happened to him, Job sinned not at all with his lips before God.
bes@Job:2:11 @ Now his three friends having heard of all the evil that was come upon him, came to him each from his own country: Eliphaz the king of the Thaemans, Baldad sovereign of the Saucheans, Sophar king of he Minaeans: and they came to him with one accord, to comfort and to visit him.
bes@Job:2:12 @ And when they saw him from a distance they did not know him; and they cried with a loud voice, and wept, and rent every one his garment, and sprinkled dust upon their heads,
bes@Job:2:13 @ and they sat down beside him seven days and seven nights, and no one of them spoke; for they saw that his affliction was dreadful and very great.
bes@Job:3:3 @ Let the day perish in which I was born, and that night in which they said, Behold a man-child!
bes@Job:3:4 @ Let that (note:)Hebrews. and Alex. day(:note) night be darkness, and let not the Lord regard it from above, neither let light come upon it.
bes@Job:3:5 @ But let darkness and the shadow of death seize it; let blackness come upon it;
bes@Job:3:8 @ But let him that curses that day curse it, even he that is ready to attack the great (note:)Or, monster; See Ge strkjv@1:21; Hebrews. Leviathan; Possibly the LXX refer to Isa strkjv@27:1(:note) whale.
bes@Job:3:9 @ Let the stars of that night be darkened; let it remain dark, and not come into light; and let it not see the morning star arise:
bes@Job:3:10 @ because it shut not up the gates of my mother’s womb, for so it would have removed sorrow from my eyes.
bes@Job:3:11 @ For why died I not in the belly? and why did I not come forth from the womb and die immediately?
bes@Job:3:12 @ and why did the knees support me? and why did I suck the breasts?
bes@Job:3:14 @ with kings and councillors of the earth, who gloried in their swords;
bes@Job:3:15 @ or with rulers, whose gold was abundant, who filled their houses with silver:
bes@Job:3:16 @ or I should have been as an untimely birth proceeding from his mother’s womb, or as infants who never saw light.
bes@Job:3:17 @ There the ungodly have burnt out the fury of rage; there the wearied in body rest.
bes@Job:3:18 @ And the men of old time have together ceased to hear the exactor’s voice.
bes@Job:3:19 @ The small and great are there, and the servant that feared his lord.
bes@Job:3:22 @ and would be very joyful if they should gain it?
bes@Job:3:23 @ Death is rest to such a man, for God has hedged him in.
bes@Job:3:25 @ For the terror of which I meditated has come upon me, and that which I had feared has befallen me.
bes@Job:4:1 @ Then Eliphaz the Thaemanite answered and said,
bes@Job:4:2 @ Hast thou been often spoken to in distress? but who shall endure the force of thy words?
bes@Job:4:3 @ For whereas thou hast instructed many, and hast strengthened the hands of the weak one,
bes@Job:4:4 @ and hast supported the failing with words, and hast imparted courage to feeble knees.
bes@Job:4:5 @ Yet now that pain has come upon thee, and touched thee, thou art troubled.
bes@Job:4:6 @ Is not thy fear founded in folly, thy hope also, and the (note:)One MS. gives akakia, «guilelessness’(:note) mischief of thy way?
bes@Job:4:7 @ Remember then who has perished, being pure? or when were the true-hearted utterly destroyed?
bes@Job:4:8 @ Accordingly as I have seen men ploughing barren places, and they that sow them will reap sorrows for themselves.
bes@Job:4:9 @ They shall perish by the command of the Lord, and shall be utterly consumed by the breath of his wrath.
bes@Job:4:10 @ The strength of the lion, and the voice of the lioness, and the exulting cry of serpents are quenched.
bes@Job:4:11 @ The (note:)Gr. ant-lion(:note) old lion has perished for want of food, and the lions’ whelps have forsaken one another.
bes@Job:4:12 @ But if there had been any truth in thy words, none of these evils would have befallen thee. Shall not mine ear receive excellent revelations from him?
bes@Job:4:13 @ But as when terror falls upon men, with dread and a sound in the night,
bes@Job:4:16 @ I arose and perceived it not: I looked, and there, was no form before my eyes: but I only heard a breath and a voice, saying,
bes@Job:4:17 @ What, shall a mortal be pure before the Lord? or a man be blameless in regard to his works?
bes@Job:4:18 @ Whereas he trust not in his servants, and perceives perverseness in his angels.
bes@Job:4:19 @ But as for them that dwell in houses of clay, of whom we also are formed of the same clay, he smites them like a moth.
bes@Job:4:20 @ And from the morning to evening they no longer exist: they have perished, because they cannot help themselves.
bes@Job:4:21 @ For he blows upon them, and they are withered: they have perished for lack of wisdom.
bes@Job:5:1 @ But call, if any one will hearken to thee, or if thou shalt see any of the holy angels.
bes@Job:5:2 @ For wrath destroys the foolish one, and envy slays him that has gone astray.
bes@Job:5:3 @ And I have seen foolish ones taking root: but suddenly their habitation was devoured.
bes@Job:5:4 @ Let their children be far from safety, and let them be crushed at the doors of vile men, and let there be no deliverer.
bes@Job:5:5 @ For what they have collected, the just shall eat; but they shall not be delivered out of calamities: let their strength be utterly exhausted.
bes@Job:5:6 @ For labour cannot by any means come out of the earth, nor shall trouble spring out of the mountains:
bes@Job:5:7 @ yet man is born to labour, and even so the vulture’s young seek the high places.
bes@Job:5:8 @ Nevertheless I will beseech the Lord, and will call upon the Lord, the sovereign of all;
bes@Job:5:9 @ who does great things and untraceable, glorious things also, and marvellous, of which there is no number:
bes@Job:5:10 @ who gives rain upon the earth, sending water on the earth:
bes@Job:5:11 @ who exalts the lowly, and raises up them that are lost:
bes@Job:5:12 @ frustrating the counsels of the crafty, and their hands shall not perform the truth:
bes@Job:5:13 @ who takes the wise in their wisdom, and subverts the counsel of the crafty
bes@Job:5:14 @ In the day darkness shall come upon them, and let them grope in the noon-day even as in the night:
bes@Job:5:15 @ and let them perish in war, and let the weak escape from the hand of the mighty.
bes@Job:5:16 @ And let the weak have hope, but the mouth of the unjust be stopped.
bes@Job:5:17 @ But blessed is the man whom the Lord has reproved; and reject not thou the chastening of the Almighty.
bes@Job:5:18 @ for he causes a man to be in pain, and restores him again: he smites, and his hands heal.
bes@Job:5:19 @ Six time he shall deliver thee out of distresses: and in the seventh harm shall not touch thee.
bes@Job:5:20 @ In famine he shall deliver thee from death: and in war he shall free thee from the (note:)Gr. hand of the iron(:note) power of the sword.
bes@Job:5:21 @ He shall hide thee from the scourge of the tongue: and thou shalt not be afraid of coming evils.
bes@Job:5:22 @ Thou shalt laugh at the unrighteous and the lawless: and thou shalt not be afraid of wild beasts.
bes@Job:5:23 @ For the wild beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee.
bes@Job:5:24 @ Then shalt thou know that thy house shall be at peace, and the provision for thy tabernacle shall not (note:)Gr. err(:note) fail.
bes@Job:5:25 @ And thou shalt know that thy seed shall be abundant; and thy children shall be like the herbage of the field.
bes@Job:5:26 @ And thou shalt come to the grave like ripe corn reaped in its season, or as a heap of the corn-flour collected in proper time.
bes@Job:5:27 @ Behold, we have thus sought out these matters; these are what we have heard: but do thou reflect with thyself, if thou hast done anything wrong.
bes@Job:6:2 @ Oh that one would indeed weigh the wrath that is upon me, and take up my griefs in a balance together!
bes@Job:6:3 @ And verily they would be heavier than the sand by the seashore: but, as it seems, my words are vain.
bes@Job:6:4 @ For the arrows of the Lord are in my body, whose violence drinks up my blood: whenever I am going to speak, they pierce me.
bes@Job:6:5 @ What then? will the wild ass bray for nothing, if he is not seeking food? or again, will the ox low at the manger, when he has a fodder?
bes@Job:6:6 @ Shall bread be eaten without salt? or again, is there taste in empty words?
bes@Job:6:7 @ For my wrath cannot cease; for I perceive my food as the smell of a lion to be loathsome.
bes@Job:6:8 @ For oh that he would grant my desire, and my petition might come, and the Lord would grant my hope!
bes@Job:6:9 @ Let the Lord begin and wound me, but let him not utterly destroy me.
bes@Job:6:10 @ Let the grave be my city, upon the walls of which I have leaped: I will not (note:)Gr. spare(:note) shrink from it; for I have not denied the holy words of my God.
bes@Job:6:12 @ Is my strength the strength of stones? or is my flesh of brass?
bes@Job:6:13 @ Or have I not trusted in him? but help is far from me.
bes@Job:6:14 @ Mercy has rejected me; and the visitation of the Lord has disregarded me.
bes@Job:6:15 @ My nearest relations have not regarded me; they have passed me by like a failing (note:)Or, mountain-torrent(:note) brook, or like a wave.
bes@Job:6:16 @ They who used to reverence me, now have come against me like snow or congealed ice.
bes@Job:6:17 @ When it has melted at the approach of heat, it is not known what it was.
bes@Job:6:19 @ Behold the ways of the Thaemanites, ye that mark the paths of the Sabaeans.
bes@Job:6:20 @ They too that trust in cities and riches shall come to shame.
bes@Job:6:23 @ to deliver me from enemies, or to rescue me from the hand of the mighty ones?
bes@Job:6:25 @ But as it seems, the words of a true man are vain, (note:)Gr. for(:note) because I do not ask strength of you.
bes@Job:6:26 @ Neither will your reproof cause me to cease my words, for neither will I endure the sound of your speech.
bes@Job:6:27 @ Even because ye attack the fatherless, and insult your friend.
bes@Job:6:29 @ Sit down now, and let there not be unrighteousness; and unite again with the just.
bes@Job:6:30 @ For there is no injustice in my tongue; and does not my throat meditate understanding?
bes@Job:7:1 @ Is not the life of man upon earth a state of trial? and his existence as that of a hireling by the day?
bes@Job:7:4 @ Whenever I lie down, I say, When will it be day? and whenever I rise up, again I say when will it be evening? and I am full of pains from evening to morning.
bes@Job:7:5 @ And my body is covered with (note:)Gr. the corruption of worms(:note) loathsome worms; and I waste away, scraping off clods of dust from my eruption.
bes@Job:7:6 @ And my life is lighter than a word, and has perished in vain hope.
bes@Job:7:7 @ Remember then that my life is breath, and mine eye shalt not yet again see good.
bes@Job:7:8 @ The eye of him that sees me shall not see me again: thine eyes are upon me, and I am no more.
bes@Job:7:9 @ I am as a cloud that is cleared away from the sky: for if a man go down to the grave, he shall not come up again:
bes@Job:7:10 @ and he shall surely not return to his own house, neither shall his place know him any more.
bes@Job:7:11 @ Then neither will I refrain my mouth: I will speak being in distress; being in (note:)Gr. straits, etc.(:note) anguish I will disclose the bitterness of my soul.
bes@Job:7:17 @ For what is man, that thou hast magnified him? or that thou givest heed to him?
bes@Job:7:18 @ Wilt thou visit him till the morning, and judge him till the time of rest?
bes@Job:7:20 @ If I have sinned, what shall I be able to do, O thou that understandest the mind of men? why hast thou made me as thine accuser, and why am I a burden to thee?
bes@Job:7:21 @ Why hast thou not forgotten my iniquity, and purged my sin? but now I shall depart to the earth; and in the morning I am no more.
bes@Job:8:1 @ Then Baldad the Sauchite answered, and said,
bes@Job:8:2 @ How long wilt thou speak these things, how long shall the breath of thy mouth be abundant in words?
bes@Job:8:3 @ Will the Lord be unjust when he judges; or will he that has made all things (note:)Gr. disturb the just thing(:note) pervert justice?
bes@Job:8:4 @ If thy sons have sinned before him, he has cast them away because of their transgression.
bes@Job:8:5 @ But be thou early in prayer to the Lord Almighty.
bes@Job:8:6 @ If thou art pure and true, he will hearken to thy supplication, and will restore to thee the habitation of righteousness.
bes@Job:8:7 @ Though then thy beginning should be small, yet thy end should be unspeakably great.
bes@Job:8:8 @ For ask of the former generation, and search diligently among the race of our fathers:
bes@Job:8:9 @ (for we are of yesterday, and know (note:)Gr. not(:note) nothing; for our life upon the earth is a shadow:)
bes@Job:8:10 @ shall not these teach thee, and report to thee, and bring out words from their heart?
bes@Job:8:11 @ Does the rush flourish without water, or shall the flag grow up without moisture?
bes@Job:8:12 @ When it is yet on the root, and though it has not been cut down, does not any herb wither before it has received moisture?
bes@Job:8:13 @ Thus then shall be the end of all that forget the (note:)Hebrews. and Alex. «God’; Job knew not God as Jehovah; Comp. Ex strkjv@6:2(:note) Lord: for the hope of the ungodly shall perish.
bes@Job:8:15 @ If he should prop up his house, it shall not stand: and when he has taken hold of it, it shall not remain.
bes@Job:8:16 @ For it is moist under the sun, and his branch shall come forth out of his (note:)Or, corruption(:note) dung-heap.
bes@Job:8:17 @ He lies down upon a gathering of stones, and shall live in the mist of flints.
bes@Job:8:19 @ that such is the overthrow of the ungodly? and out of the earth another shall grow.
bes@Job:8:20 @ For the Lord will by no means reject the harmless man; but he will not receive any gift of the ungodly.
bes@Job:8:21 @ But he will fill with laughter the mouth of the sincere, and their lips with thanksgiving.
bes@Job:8:22 @ But their adversaries shall clothe themselves with shame; and the habitation of the ungodly shall perish.
bes@Job:9:1 @ Then Job answered and said,
bes@Job:9:2 @ I know of a truth that it is so: for how shall a mortal man be just before the Lord?
bes@Job:9:3 @ For if he would enter into judgement with him, (note:)Or, he(:note) God would not hearken to him, so that he should answer to one of his charges of a thousand.
bes@Job:9:4 @ For he is wise in mind, and mighty, and great: who has hardened himself against him and endured?
bes@Job:9:5 @ Who wears out the mountains, and men know it not: who overturns them in anger.
bes@Job:9:6 @ Who shakes the earth under heaven from its foundations, and its pillars totter.
bes@Job:9:7 @ Who commands the sun, and it rises not; and he seals up the stars.
bes@Job:9:8 @ Who alone has stretched out the heavens, and walks on the sea as on firm ground.
bes@Job:9:9 @ Who makes Pleias, and Hesperus, and Arcturus, and the chambers of the south.
bes@Job:9:11 @ If ever he should go beyond me, I shall not see him: if he should pass by me, neither thus have I known it.
bes@Job:9:12 @ If he would take away, who shall turn him back? or who shall say to him, What hast thou done?
bes@Job:9:13 @ For if he has turned away his anger, the (note:)Or, probably any large fish, or marine animals, whether cetaceous or not; See note, Ge strkjv@1:21(:note) whales under heaven have stooped under him.
bes@Job:9:15 @ For though I be righteous, he will not hearken to me: I will intreat his judgement.
bes@Job:9:16 @ And if I should call and he should (note:)Hebrews. and Alex. omit «not.’(:note) not hearken, I cannot believe that he has listened to my voice.
bes@Job:9:17 @ Let him not crush me with a dark storm: but he has made by bruises many without cause.
bes@Job:9:18 @ For he suffers me not to take breath, but he has filled me with bitterness.
bes@Job:9:19 @ For indeed he is strong in power: who then shall resist his judgement?
bes@Job:9:22 @ Wherefore I said, Wrath slays the great and mighty man.
bes@Job:9:23 @ For the worthless die, but the righteous are laughed to scorn.
bes@Job:9:24 @ For they are delivered into the hands of the unrighteous man: he covers the faces of the judges of the earth: but if it be not he, who is it?
bes@Job:9:25 @ But my life is swifter than a post: my days (note:)i. e., insensibly(:note) have fled away, and they knew it not.
bes@Job:9:26 @ Or again, is there a trace of their path left by ships? or is there one of the flying eagle as it seeks its prey?
bes@Job:9:32 @ For thou art not man like me, with whom I could contend, that we might come together to judgement.
bes@Job:9:33 @ Would that he our mediator were present, and a reprover, and one who should hear the cause between both.
bes@Job:10:1 @ Weary in my soul, I will pour my words with groans upon (note:)Alex. myself(:note) him: I will speak being straitened in the bitterness of my soul.
bes@Job:10:2 @ And I will say to the Lord, Do not teach me to be impious; and wherefore hast thou thus judged me?
bes@Job:10:3 @ Is it good before thee if I be unrighteous? for thou hast disowned the work of thy hands, and attended to the counsel of the ungodly.
bes@Job:10:5 @ Or is thy life human, or thy years the years of a man,
bes@Job:10:6 @ that thou hast enquired into mine iniquity, and searched out my sins?
bes@Job:10:7 @ For thou knowest that I have not committed iniquity: but who is he that can deliver out of thy hands?
bes@Job:10:10 @ Hast thou not poured me out like milk, and curdled me like cheese?
bes@Job:10:11 @ And thou didst clothe me with skin and flesh, and frame me with bones and sinews.
bes@Job:10:13 @ Having these things in thyself, I know that thou canst do all things; for nothing is impossible with thee.
bes@Job:10:14 @ And if I should sin, thou watchest me; and thou hast not cleared me from iniquity.
bes@Job:10:18 @ Why then didst thou bring me out of the womb? and why did I not die, and no eye see me,
bes@Job:10:19 @ and I become as if I had not been? for why was I not carried from the womb to the grave?
bes@Job:10:20 @ Is not the (note:)Gr. life of my time(:note) time of my life short? suffer me to rest a little,
bes@Job:10:21 @ before I go whence I shall not return, to a land of darkness and gloominess;
bes@Job:10:22 @ to a land of perpetual darkness, where there is no light, neither can any one see the life of mortals.
bes@Job:11:1 @ Then Sophar the Minaean answered and said,
bes@Job:11:2 @ He that speaks much, (note:)Gr. shall(:note) should also hear on the other side: or does the fluent speaker think himself to be righteous? blessed is the short lived offspring of woman.
bes@Job:11:3 @ Be not a speaker of many words; for is there none to answer thee?
bes@Job:11:5 @ But oh that the Lord would speak to thee, and open his lips to thee!
bes@Job:11:6 @ Then shall he declare to thee the power of wisdom; for it shall be double of that which is with thee: and then shalt thou know, that a just recompence of thy sins has come to thee from the Lord.
bes@Job:11:7 @ Wilt thou find out the traces of the Lord? or hast thou come to the end of that which the Almighty has made?
bes@Job:11:8 @ Heaven is high; and what wilt thou do? and there are deeper things than those in hell; what dost thou know?
bes@Job:11:9 @ Or longer than the measure of the earth, or the breadth of the sea.
bes@Job:11:10 @ And if he should overthrow all things, who will say to him, What hast thou done?
bes@Job:11:11 @ For he knows the works of transgressors; and when he sees (note:)Gr. improprieties(:note) wickedness, he will not overlook it.
bes@Job:11:12 @ But man vainly (note:)Gr. floats, or, swims(:note) buoys himself up with words; and a mortal born of woman is like an ass in the desert.
bes@Job:11:13 @ For if thou hast made thine heart pure, and liftest up thine hands towards him;
bes@Job:11:14 @ if there is any iniquity in thy hands, put if far from thee, and let not unrighteousness lodge in thy habitation.
bes@Job:11:17 @ And thy prayer shall be as the morning star, and life shall arise to thee as from the noonday.
bes@Job:11:18 @ And thou shalt be confident, because thou hast hope; and peace shall dawn to thee from out of anxiety and care.
bes@Job:11:19 @ For thou shalt be at ease, and there shall be no one to fight against thee; and many shall charge, and make supplication to thee.
bes@Job:11:20 @ But safety shall fail them; for their hope is destruction, and the eyes of the ungodly shall waste away.
bes@Job:12:2 @ So then ye alone are men, and wisdom shall die with you?
bes@Job:12:3 @ But I also have a heart as well as you.
bes@Job:12:5 @ For it had been ordained that he should fall under others (note:)Or, for(:note) at the appointed time, and that his houses should be spoiled by transgressors: let not however any one trust that, being evil, he shall be held guiltless,
bes@Job:12:6 @ even as many as provoke the Lord, as if there were indeed to be no inquisition made of them.
bes@Job:12:7 @ But ask now the beasts, if they may speak to thee; and the birds of the air, if they may declare to thee.
bes@Job:12:8 @ Tell the earth, if it may speak to thee: and the fishes of the sea shall explain to thee.
bes@Job:12:9 @ Who then has not known in all these things, that the hand of the Lord has made them?
